In other news, a recent video showing human and cat interaction has captured everybody's attention. The 25-second-long video was posted on Reddit on March 25. Captioned ‘day 10’, the clip is now making netizens go ‘aww’.

It shows a passive-aggressive interaction between a human and his cat about the positioning of the window blinds. In the beginning, we see the kitty sitting on top of a sofa starring out of the window; probably thinking of the day its human would be back at work so she could finally have some me-time again.

Suddenly, the man in the video stretches his arm, from where he is sitting, to close the blinds. The feline is obviously shocked at this man’s audacity and does a full-turn with a clear ‘did you see what he just did?’ look.
